Depression is a common mental disorder with high incidence rate and low remission rate.The prediction of therapeutic effect in depression is limited to clinical features and neuroimaging.Reviewed the Results of magnetic resonance imaging for predicting the treatment response in depression and explored the Objective image markers for predicting the therapeutic effect in depression.It showed that the studies mainly focused on emotion regulation neural circuitry and few on reward neural circuitry.Prefrontal cortex,cingulate cortex,amygdala and hippocampus play important roles on predicting therapeutic effect.The study of magnetic resonance imaging for predicting therapeutic effect in depression is a feasible research field.More researches of finding the role of reward neural circuits in predicting the effect of antidepressants are needed.The brain structure and function of the neural circuits involved in depression and predicting the effect of anti-depression need to be studied by multimodal MRI method.

Objective To explore the role of Janus kinase/signal transduction and transcriptional activation (JAK/STAT) pathway in rat liver damaged by excessive fluorine.Methods Thirty-six healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomized by weight and divided into three groups (6 males and 6 females per group):a control group (drunk water containing NaF ＜1 mg/L) and two fluorosis groups (drunk water containing NaF of 5 mg/L and 50 mg/ L).After 6 months of experiment treatment,the fluorine contents of urine and bone were detected by fluorine-ion electrode method.The rats liver function was determined by automatic blood chemical analyzer.The protein expression of Janus kinase (JAK1),signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT3),B-cell lymphoma/ leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-associated x protein (Bax) were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and protein imprinting (Western blotting).The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD),glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and the content of lipid peroxide (LPO) in liver tissue were determined with oxidative stress kit.Results The fluorine contents in the urine and bone in low-[(1.90 ± 0.12)mg/L,(210.37 ± 15.81)mg/kg] and high-dose [(2.20 ± 0.17)mg/L,(222.84 ± 10.21)mg/kg] fluoride groups were higher than those of control group [(1.74 ± 0.11)mg/L;(165.48 ± 10.37) mg/kg,F =33.840,69.149,P ＜0.05];the activity of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in high-dose fluorosis group [(69.83 ± 11.18),(167.56 ± 50.85) U/L] was higher than those of control group [(42.67 ± 7.07),(126.31 ± 16.76)U/L,F =32.135,4.984,all P ＜0.05];the protein expression of JAK1,STAT3 and Bax (1.56 ± 0.31,1.49 ± 0.49,1.41 ± 0.55) in high-dose fluorosis group were significantly higher than those of control group(1.01 ± 0.11,1.04 ± 0.15,0.87 ± 0.21,F=10.923,5.361,5.009,all P＜0.05),and Bcl-2 (0.61 ± 0.15) was significantly lower in high-dose fluorosis group than control group (1.04 ± 0.17,F =16.017,P ＜0.05);the activities of SOD and GSH-PX [(7.22 ± 0.88),(7.23 ± 2.47)U/mg prot] were significantly lower in high-dose fluorosis group than control group [(9.52 ± 1.51),(12.01 ± 5.16)U/mg prot,F =11.627,4.824,all P ＜0.05],and the contents of LPO [(9.23 ± 2.24)μmol/g prot] was significantly higher in high-dose fluorosis group than control group [(6.09 ± 1.55)μmol/g prot,F =7.457,P ＜0.05].Conclusion JAK/STAT signaling pathway and the oxidative stress,apoptosis may be the pathogenesis of liver damage in chronic fluorosis.

This study is to investigate the effect of Euphorbia humifusa effective fraction (EHEF) on the CYP51 enzyme activity, the lanosterol content and the MEP, SUB gene expression of Trichophyton rubrum. Trichophyton rubrum was treated by EHEF for 7 days at 26 degrees C. The activity of CYP51 enzyme of Trichophyton rubrum in the cell membrane was determined by using ELISA kit, and the lanosterol content was investigated by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the MEP, SUB gene expression of Trichophyton rubrum was detected with the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. Results showed that EHEF can decrease the membrane CYP51 enzyme activity, and it also can accumulate the fungal lanosterol in a dose-dependent manner, and it also can decrease the gene expression of MEP and SUB. The antifungal mechanism of EHEF may be related to the inhibition on CYP51 enzyme activity, and to the effects on fungal cell membrane ergosterol biosynthesis. It may also play an antifungal effect by inhibiting the MEP, SUB gene expression of fungal proteases.

Thirty-three patients with esophageal carcinoma (T3N1M0 or less) underwent thoracoscopic surgery in lateral prone position for esophagectomy from February 2010 to November 2012.Their postoperative outcomes and survivals were retrospectively analyzed.The results confirmed the feasibility and safety of this mini-invasive thoracoscopic procedure in lateral prone position for patients with esophageal carcinoma.A possible advantage of lateral prone technique is that in case of an emergency switch to open surgery,precious time may be saved in changing body position.

Objective To summerize the clinical experience of 23 cases of carotid cavernous fistula(CCF) and discuss the treatment strategy. Methods Retrospectively analyzed 23 patients(11 males and 12 females) of CCF,including 14 patients with Barrow type A,1 with type B,1 with type C and 7 with type D. Results Vascular approach for embolization was undertaken in 20 cases by transarterial access and 2 via venous route while 1 case was given up. Among them,9 cases obtained complete occlusion by simple balloon embolization and 5 were treated by direct occlusion of internal carotid artery. Another 5 cases used NBCA glue for the occlusion,1 case was embolized by gelatin-sponge particulates combined with compression of carotid artery,2 cases were treated by coil embolization of cavernous sinus and 1 case was only managed by carotid compression maneuver. We achieved satisfactory clinical results with 21 patients cured and 2 patients improved. Conclusion Complexity and refractory are the characteristic of CCF,and endovascular treatment should be the major choice of treatment. (J Intervent Radiol,2006,15: 323-326)

Objective To construct a geometric skull model by using three-dimensional reconstruction, computer tomography scanning and rapid prototyping technology and evaluate its significance in treatment of complex oral and maxillofacial deformities. Methods A cranial and a goldenhar syndrome patient with complex oral and maxillofacial deformities bone received continuous volumetric scanning of skull and the data acquisition was done by an electron computed tomography, by which reconstruction was performed and the obtained images saved as STL files. Then the data were input into rapid prototyping machine to make three-dimensional geometric model. Direct measurement, designation and surgery simulation could be done on this three-dimensional model. Then the mandibular mirror physical model was manufactured using rapid prototyping according to the normal side. Results A computer-aided model according to CT data could represent the three-dimensional anatomic structures and their relationships precisely. The replica exhibited dimensional errors ranging 0.02 mm to 0.53 mm. Which provided strong basis for accurate understanding of disease status and reasonable surgical plans and helped improve the curative effect of surgery. Conclusion Rapid prototyping can help surgeons in many ways for therapy of the complex oral and maxillofacial deformities.
